title: An anti-HLA class I monoclonal antibody alters the progression in the cell cycle of phytohemagglutinin-activated human T lymphocytes.
abstract: The monomorphic anti-HLA Class I monoclonal antibody 01.65 inhibits the incorporation of tritiated thymidine ([3H]TdR) in Phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-activated human T lymphocytes. Our data indicate that 01.65 affects the average duration of the cell cycle by increasing the length of the early S subphase. As a consequence of the increase in the doubling time of the cell population, the absolute number of cells at harvesting time was reduced in 01.65-treated cultures compared to that of untreated cultures. The lengthening of the S-phase and the decrease in the cell number can together quantitatively account for the reduction of [3H]TdR incorporation observed in 01.65-treated cultures.
